The National Motorcycle Museum is recognised as the finest and largest motorcycle museum in the world. One of the Museum’s key aims is to continue to make it even better, and important and famous machines are regularly being added to its collection. It is a place where ‘Legends Live On’ and it is a tribute to (and a living record of) this once great British industry that dominated world markets for some sixty years. In a society that is quick to lose its appreciation of the inherent skills and industry of this nation, the Museum records for posterity the engineering achievements of the last century. It is a place where an older generation can once again view with nostalgia the machines they rode in days gone by, and younger generations can study the development of the motorcycle from its earlier days to the golden years of the 1930s-60s, when British motorcycles ‘ruled the world’.
